hi everyone, first post on this forum,so a bit about me,i guess!
i learnt a few tricks in Thailand some 8 years ago spending a couple of months doing fire on the beach most evenings.
i recently picked up the chains again to be told by my wife(who hails from New Zealand) that they were called poi;so,tapping in "poi" i found myself here and it rekindled the flame as it were.
looking forward to getting back into it,btw,i never realised all the moves had names,gotta work out whats called what!!

Ditto! And if you're enterprising enough, you can call all the moves your own names, and get people to call them what you call them
Extra points the simpler the move. Hi and welcome!
